Does anyone have any experience with these heater? I'm thinking of adding one to my dual stage Love controller in my fermentation cabinet.


Thanks,

I use a ceramic heater bulb normal used to heat reptile aquariums.

Can get the same thing at Petco/PetSmart/Pet(whatever).

It's a terrarium heater. I use one, got from one of the above for like $12.00. Works fine in a 16cuft chest..

Do you think this will work in a freezer containing a stainless conical or will the metal reflect the heat?

It should work fine. Stainless is a better conductor than plastic.

Probably not needed but, I also have a computer fan wired to come on with the ceramic heater just to circulate the air.

I'm getting about a 13 degree (F) temperature change using one of these:
Rh-4 Repti Therm Uth 10-20Gl | OzBo

I'd be interested if anyone can give temperature adjustments based on device used.
